It’s been a while since I blogged as we have taken some time off to spend with our children and grandchildren for the holiday season

What a great Blessing we have had. Our children and grandchildren were all home for Christmas and New Year’s. Had a great surprise from our grandson Griffon and his friend who flew in from Florida to join the rest of the family.

Old man winter has been on a roller coaster ride the last few weeks here in Pike County, IL. Rain, snow zero degrees, windy and now 59 degrees with a winter storm consisting of snow, sleet and ice on the horizon for this weekend.

Even with the weather conditions, we have been seeing a lot of deer activity on the trail cams. Bucks and does are loving the winter food plot.

Butler Farms is excited about the coming year. We are now booking for the 2017-2018 Archery season, spring turkey hunts, and lodging accommodation’s for anyone coming into Pike County for meetings, reunions, retreats, get-a-ways and family and church events.
